Preoperative Carcinoembryonic Antigen Level as an Independent Prognostic Factor in Colorectal Cancer. Further Comments
To the Editor:
In the January issue of Jpn J Clin Oncol, Wang et al. (1) found that preoperative carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels are an independent prognostic factor in non-metastatic colorectal cancer patients after curative surgery. As the authors correctly pointed out, the prognostic significance of CEA is controversial in these patients.
